Port and Cable Configurations
Asynchronous Serial Ports
The two asynchronous serial ports located on the RemotaSilo circuit
board (internal and external) are automatically configured to match the
settings of the asynchronous serial ports located on the host computer
and the RAID controller, respectively. These serial port settings consist
of the following parameters:
• Number of Data Bits
• Number of Stop Bits
• Enable/Disable of Parity Bit
• Baud Rate (# Bits/Second)
Serial Port for RAID Controller
The internal serial port DB-9 connector, located on the RemotaSilo
circuit board, connects to a terminal serial port on the RAID controller (if
one is installed). See Figure 3 below for the connector location.
Note: Jumper J3 is used for an
optional SCSI interface to set SCSI ID
and SCSI termination. For basic RemotaSilo configurations, there are
no jumpers to set.
